MS. STILSON:  The next question is from Carol in Evansville. If perhaps the Space Shuttle Discovery did not launch on the 13th,

00:00:05.000 --> 00:00:10.000
how much of its supplies would have to be removed and then reloaded closer to its launch date?

00:00:10.000 --> 00:00:16.000
MR. HIGGINBOTHAM:  Well, fortunately for us, the hardware we're flying up on this mission is pretty insensitive to the passage of time.

00:00:16.000 --> 00:00:25.000
In other words, it's not perishable. So right now, we're good for launch attempts all the way through any potential window we may have in September.
